Frequently Asked Questions About Children’s Dentistry
When should my child first see the dentist?
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a child’s first dental visit by their first birthday or within six months of their first tooth appearing. Early visits help us monitor development and establish healthy habits.
How often should children have dental checkups?
Most children should visit Evergreen Dental & Orthodontics every six months for a cleaning and exam. Regular visits allow us to catch small issues early and keep your child’s smile on a healthy track.
Are baby teeth really that important if they fall out anyway?
Yes. Primary teeth guide permanent teeth into place, support proper speech and chewing, and protect against infection. Caring for them properly helps prevent alignment and spacing problems later.
How do you keep nervous children comfortable?
Our experienced team uses gentle, child-friendly language, a calm environment, and patient explanations to ease anxiety. We take the time your child needs so each visit feels positive and stress-free.
Do you offer preventive treatments like sealants?
Yes. We provide dental sealants, fluoride, cleanings, and periodic X-rays as part of our preventive program to protect your child’s teeth from cavities.
